Los Angeles Coffee Festival To Make Its Debut In Downtown LA

LOS ANGELES, CA – The first ever Los Angeles Coffee Festival will take place Nov. 9-11, at Downtown L.A.'s Magic Box at The Reef. The weekend-long event will feature lots of coffee, of course, in addition to local food, cocktails, live music and art.

This caffeine-fueled event will feature local and international roasters and coffee clubs in "The Roasters Village," including: Mooon x Coffee Hall, Bean Brothers, L.A. Coffee Club, Madlab, Bluestone Lane Mondo, Pecora 19º09, DogTown Coffee, Take Flight Coffee and more. There will also be a Coffee Mixologists competition, where mixologists will join a series of takeovers during the evening, whipping up incredible coffee cocktails for guests.

In addition, there will also be The Lab, featuring a line-up of interactive demonstrations, educational workshops, talks and tastings, the Coffee Music Project and the Coffee Art Project, as well as:

• The Kitchenesia, a new casual dining showcase. At The Kitchenesia, star chefs from L.A. will present their most innovative ideas through demos, workshops and talks.
• Latte Art Live will include an interactive zone dedicated to the craft, where attendees can take part in hands-on workshops and demonstrations where the pros will teach them techniques to latte art.
• The Coffee Cocktail Bar which will serve cocktails with coffee liqueur and Grey Goose vodka.
• The Cinema, celebrating L.A.’s rich cinematic history, will feature leading coffee-inspired films, new films from independent producers, and the short list of films selected for the first ever Coffee Art Project.
• The Innovation Zone, where attendees can discover some of the most cutting-edge brands and small businesses, from technology to apparel to micro-roasters.

But the best part of all, is that 10% of profits will be donated to Project Waterfall, partnering with NYC-based charity: water, where they work to deliver life-changing water projects in coffee-growing regions. Since 2011, the organization has raised over $1.5 million, bringing clean water to more than 37,000 people across seven countries.

We are delighted to be bringing the Coffee Festival to the West Coast for the first time this year. Los Angeles is a city of culture and creativity, and coffee and food play a huge part in the fabric of LA life,” Jeffrey Young, Allegra Group CEO, said.
